Overdrive button issues
just noticed a few weeks ago that in my 06 screw kr that has the center console shifter that the overdrive button sticks and wont pop out only in, and have to use a knife to pry out to turn off, is there any way to remove the botton to fix it?

Pull the switch out and spray some brake cleaner in it. Blow out with air compressor. Wait for it to dry and test it before putting it back in the truck.
Just suggesting stuff. I've never removed that button, so I don't know how hard it is.

Put some LPS in there which is a electric cleaner and is alcohol based so dissolves quick but still no change wondering if it isnt a spring that is broke

Overdrive button issues
Mine sticks occasionally. The location of the button couldn't be in a worse place. It's a catch all for dirt and goo to get trapped in around the button. I would avoid harsh cleaners such as brake cleaner, maybe pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol around the button and work the button a few times allowing the alcohol to dissolve the grime.

Sticking overdrive button in center console
Mine was sticking too but it would return to the up position. I opened the console cover. (You access the release through the console storage cover using a standard screwdriver). Then the O/D switch is easily removed. It costs about $25 at the dealer, but I did not have to replace mine. I would first try to spray it with an electrical contact cleaner. Good luck.
